“Karina was awesome!! Our usual dog sitter fell through just a day before a night away, and Karina was quick to respond, and flexible even with the last minute booking. She sent a bunch of videos which were much appreciated, and showed Ruth was having a great time with her dogs and other visitors. You could tell Karina really knew what she was doing and good at introducing new dogs into the mix. Would definitely recommend!”
“Allyson boarded for my two dogs while I went away on vacation. My dogs were really happy and comfortable with her and enjoyed staying at her place. Allyson is really friendly and experienced with dogs. I did not have to worry at all about them during my vacation. I am glad i boarded my dogs with her, and would highly recommend her to care for anyone else’s pets.”

About: I am a Marine and Army veteran with a passion for dogs. I love all dogs no matter what size they are. I’m a decent sized guy so hyperactive or stronger dogs are no problem for me. The more playful, the better. If your pet loves to run, I’ll run right along with them. If your pet is more inclined to be on the inside, I’ll be right there. I’ll take care of all needs. Please Note: Although I love all pets especially dogs, I’m unfortunately allergic to cats. My most available times are on the weekend but I am also available during the week and can fit almost any time into my schedule. I will provide your pet with all the attention they’ll need plus more. I will be able to take them on walks around your neighborhood, play games with them, feed them, and give them their needed bathroom breaks. The house rules you have established for them will be maintained at all times.
“Our dog had such a good time with Monique. She sent pictures everyday and went above and beyond to make sure he was taken care of. We were so happy to have someone refer us to her and we will refer anyone else to her as well.”
“Tina was great! She was flexible on timing, very communicative, sent great pictures of our dog, and he came home happy. Would recommend her highly and look forward to using her in the future.”
“First time with the strangers, and it was a success! Our old lady was in top condition when we picked her up! Stefanie sent us updates/pictures every day, it was nice to see Ozzi being calm and comfortable. They even provided our dog with a rug for walking over the hardwood floors. Just shows how much they cared! Thank you!”
“Our dog loves staying with Jieun! She is very professional and communicates in a timely manner both before and during visits, but most of all we know our dog is in great hands.”
“Kiayla is an absolute joy to meet with a positive caring attitude towards the care and safety of our fur baby. She was attentive to his needs in this new experience and environment, as well as showing him who’s the boss to continue consistent care and expectations for a pleasant stay. I would definitely recommend her and book Ms. Kiayla again.”
“My dog Ralph has stayed with Anne-Marie a few times now, and has always enjoyed himself. I always get great photos of him, and he never wants to leave. Would highly recommend!”
About: Hi! This is a joint account with my partner and myself. We cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes since we were young of age. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted us for years to walk, feed, bathe, and give loving attention to their pets. We are experienced with both energetic puppies and senior dogs who need a gentler approach, and we treat every pet as if they were my own. This is a joint account with me and my partner. We always have full availability and always are looking to take care of your pets! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow any specific routines or instructions you provide. I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well looked after, whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, administering medications, or keeping their environment clean and comfortable. I always respect your home and your pet’s space.
“We had a great experience with Luci’s daycare service. From the start, communication was easy and reassuring. She shared photos and videos throughout the day, which made us feel completely at ease. Dante looked very comfortable and happy, almost like he was at home. It’s not always easy to find someone you can fully trust with your dog, but this was definitely one of those cases. We’re really glad we found her and will absolutely book again when needed. Highly recommended.”
“Very reliable, communicative, and clearly loves dogs. I got regular updates and photos, and my pup was happy and well cared for. I’d definitely book again and highly recommended!!!!”
“After trying 4 dog sitters, we finally found Lauren and couldn’t be happier. She takes incredibly good care of pups, she’s reliable and flexible with scheduling. Even when we have last minute bookings, she’s been available every time. He’s the only sitter that our pup looks forward to seeing. And he comes back clean, with freshly cut nails. If you need a sitter you can rely on and trust to treat your baby well, call Lauren.”

Julia was an amazing sitter. My dog loved spending time with her. She sent frequent pictures and updates. She reached out immediately with any questions or concerns she had to make sure she was taking the best care of my pup. I will definitely be using her again in the future.
Charles stayed with Brianna and couldn’t have been happier! 🐶❤️ Brianna was so sweet and made him feel right at home, even letting him sleep on her bed during the day—which he absolutely loved! She was very responsive and kept me updated throughout the day, which gave me great peace of mind. I would definitely recommend Brianna to anyone looking for a dog sitter in the New Haven, CT area. Charles would be happy to stay with her again\! 🐾
Shelby has been a wonderful sitter for my cat, Sage. She made her feel so comfortable she had a hard time leaving. Shelby is friendly, communicative, and shares lots of pictures. As hard as it is to leave Sage when I travel, I feel comfortable knowing she is in Shelby's care.
Sai was excellent and amazing when boarding my dog for a couple of days. Followed all instructions given and provided updates throughout the day. Since this was my first time using this app I was a bit skeptical with everyone but I gained confidence because Sai is amazing at care for our loved ones. Will definitely book again if needed, Highly recommended.
Kiayla did an incredible job taking care of our cat Lychee during the two weeks we were traveling abroad. Lychee had a stress related accident in the car just as we dropping him off at her place but Kiayla took it in stride and let us use her bathroom to give him a bath immediately. She was patient with him when he had another accident the next day and responsive over messages as we were trying to figure out what to do. Thankfully that was the worst of it and Lychee settled right in after that and made himself right at home! When I went to pick him up two weeks later he looked so happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. Very grateful to Kiayla for the love and care she has given our kitty - would highly recommend her to anyone else looking to board their pets!!
Amber was the best cat sitter and my family was pleasantly surprised at tge special care and love Amber gave our 3 months old kittens. Amber cared for them as if they were her own. She had excellent cat knowledge and experience. She sent us pictures everyday and cute remarks that made us laugh. We were comfortable and relaxed knowing our kittens were in great hands. We would highly recommend Amber to sit for any cat owner.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CT ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
